About the Book

"Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding." - Albert Einstein.

Understanding Violence is a heartfelt exploration born from the author's continued distress at the family and domestic violence crisis that has been continuing for decades. To solve the problem of violence, we must first fully understand it, not just one part, but its totality. This book goes beyond the headlines, delving into the varied and often hidden ways violence manifests in our society-from the overt to the subtle, from the physical to the psychological. It shows family violence as one traumatic symptom of a much larger disease. Reducing violence in society then is not just about pointing fingers at "bad people"; it's about understanding the culture that allows violence to thrive and recognising that we all play a role in its perpetuation.

Drawing from research, personal reflections, and expert insights, the author emphasises that understanding is the first crucial step toward change. By calling out violence in all its forms and unpacking the beliefs, emotions, and systemic issues that underpin violent behaviours, Understanding Violence invites readers to reflect on their own actions and the world around them. It challenges us to look honestly at how violence infiltrates our everyday lives, whether through media, politics, entertainment or unexamined attitudes.

This book is for anyone who believes in a more compassionate, peaceful world. Whether you're a policymaker, a community leader, or someone seeking to make a difference in your own life, Understanding Violence offers insights to help break the cycle of harm at the source. By fostering a deeper understanding, we can all contribute to meaningful change-starting with ourselves.
